MICHELL’S EASTER LILY BULBS 
For indoor culture 
Cultural Notes. —As soon as bulbs are received, plant them in pots. Place a handful of well-rotted cow-manure in the bottom of the pot and set 
the bulb directly on top, covering it with soil. After watering, place in an outside pit and protect from the direct rays of the sun; cover well with 
soil, ashes, or any other suitable litter. After the bulbs have become thoroughly rooted, bring inside, in a temperature of about 60 degrees. Let the 
plants grow slowly under a bench or some other suitable place until about 6 inches high, then place on top of the bench. About two months before 
Easter they can be brought into a warmer temperature and gradually forced into flower and height at one time.

Special Notice Regarding Delivery. —Most of the Lilies listed below will arrive in time for fall planting. Some varieties, however, reach us too 
late, and orders for these will be held for early spring delivery. When ordering, please specify if you desire for fall or spring delivery. 
It is advisable to prepare your Lily-bed in the early autumn and cover with 3 to 4 inches of litter. This will prevent freezing and will permit safe 
planting of the late arrivals.
